No win scenario for Sunak. They are following Braverman in trying to get sacked to reposition themselves in a hard right Tory party in opposition. He sacks them, and they pop off the back benches to throw shit at him. He sticks with them and he looks weak.
Itâs stuff like this that makes me think that the timing of a General Election might not be quite as in Sunakâs hands as he thinks it is.
Conservatives!
Have you fucked up the country? Is everyone sick to the back teeth of your corruption? Are the polls suggesting youâre facing wipeout that might take a generation to recover from?
Donât worry! When all else fails, you can always turn to gerrymandering.
Another epic week in the making
Anderson and Clarke-Smith have jacked as predicted by @Mascot
Post Office scandal has properly blown up with one witness stating he thinks thereâs been forged documents and fictitious accounts created.
Rwanda vote today
Cameron proving to be the slimy eel that he is
What else have I missed?
Sunak can plan for an Autumn election all he likes. I donât think he is going to last that long.
Iâm getting that feeling too. He might be the only person on that Rwanda flight.
Seriously though, itâs gone beyond a farce now.
Say he goes, when does the parliamentary process actually stand up and say âSorry guys, youâve had a crack at it but itâs time for the public to have their say now?â Does that mechanism actually exist?
With an election having to be held by next January at the latest, I canât see any parliamentary process stepping in. I also donât see Sunak being forced out by rebels anyway.
Pretty difficult to crack a 54 seat majority with a non-confidence vote.
âThe British people deserve honestyâ - S. Braverman
I donât think there are enough laughing emojis on the entire internet to do that one justice.
Another top class article from one of the best journalists out there.
to be honest, whilst i dont disagree with the position the man is taking, the writing is very basic and sensationalistâŚi dont know why this constitutes good journalism, apart from the fact he has an opinion i agree withâŚ
its very tabliodish
To be fair when writing about the excesses of the super rich in contrast with people living in destitution condition, its hard to make it not look like hyperbole. It feels unbelieveable.
maybe.
did you read it though, its hardly indepthâŚ
with a heading like that at a paper like that id be hoping for more than just the one statistic about the flotilla growing in the last 20 yearsâŚ
its a fascinating subject, you could draw on why people are so drawn to watching the super rich, getting a glimpse of thier livesâŚyou could discuss the cost of one supermaxi maybe funding how many families of refugeesâŚyou could discuss whos rumoured to have had lunch on whos boat etcâŚ
Read some of his other articles.
I think you misunderstand the way opinion pieces and headlines are written and the point of this one.
did they hire @gasband to write it up.
Clearly not. Quality here is far lower.
possibly.
but COG did say âtop class articleââŚi guess i was expecting something abit more researched. in depth.
